Prologis is predicting that U.S. warehouse development starts will drop to a 7-year low, as rent growth exceeds 10%.
Starts are already 30% below their peak in Europe and Prologis expects that to continue in the US. The warehouse property owner says the rapid rise in the cost of capital is the culprit and starts will fall by 60% to less than 175 million square feet in 2023.
